About Me

I am 27 years old, currently living in Seoul to finish uni and really enjoying the vibe of the city and the people there. Usually, I live in the eastern german city of Leipzig. I love everything that has to do with mountains, mountaineering, climbing, nature - for me simply the pure spirit of life :)

And: I am a hobby-mycologist - I love to learn about the variety of fungi, as well as picking mushrooms in the forest and preparing them. It is something I learned from my grandpa and every autumn I'm out in the woods as much as I can 🌲🌳

I already had the chance to live in various countries of this beautiful world and decided to make this passion to my profession. Hence, I am studying International Relations.

Apart of that, I am very much into politics and the fight against climate change - in Germany I am a local politician and Climate activist 🌍

And of course: I love traveling and getting to know new cultures. I guess that goes without saying ;)
